While the song may sound racist today, in it's original context it was trying to teach people that racism is wrong. <BR/><BR/>I remember growing up in a world that thought color was important. I watched the riots in the south on the neighbor's tv because we were too poor to have one. I always wondered if that made me the "poor white trash" they ridiculed as well. I remember being confused by what made those people think they were better because of their skin, because that sure wasn't what I thought. Those people were awful.<BR/><BR/>I think it's great if the world has come far enough that the meaning of this song has changed. However, I suspect in the eyes of many, there's still the need for the message that we are all the same no matter what we look like on the outside.Rising Rainbowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04239592070775412669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12003055.post-58451917098485119582008-05-10T20:12:00.000-06:002008-05-10T20:12:00.000-06:00Very well said.
